Re: pic: 2010 LA Regional Finalists

And then there are things you can't see in this picture, like

980: There robot is built to be modular. Take out a few bolts and their entire kicker comes out. A few more bolts and out comes the electronics box. I was watching them build a lift mechanism and reconfiguring their robot inards to make room for it.

968: Uses a custom built transmission that disconnects the drive motors and redirects their power to the lifting mechanism. Even though they claim they built their robot on Thursday, you wouldn't know it by looking in it. They did a nice job of putting it together and paying attention to details.

294: One of the few robots that I have seen to implement the CAN bus jaguars. The team did a great job of explaining how and why they used the CAN bus.

Nice job to all three of your teams, you have a lot to be proud of.
